Sometimes You Just Want the Comfort of a Re-Read

A list of books I have read more than once (some, many, many times), with the ones I've read most in the top 20.
It would seem my comfort reads include a few classics, and mostly speculative fiction in all its forms for the rest, from mythology and fantasy to sci-fi and historical fiction (preferably set a very long time ago!).
